Another bar ID please, Now ID'd as PRO NECK , National Pro bars !! Thanks MarkyP

<< < (4/4)

Thanks for all your help lads , I think Dave probably started this rolling when he said the crossbar looked a bit low . The two bars do look very similar but i think it is the feint outline of the oval decal and the slightly lower crossbar that has convinced me they are Pro Neck bars .  Obviously having input from two lads who really know there stuff in MarkyP (self confessed bar id nut  :D) and Andy Rooski helps a lot .

Cheers lads  :4_17_5:

Just measured my pro neck pro bars and they are the same dimensions Joff down to the thin bar location.
As soon as you mentioned the oval mark that sort of clinches it.
I'm sure i read somewhere that the early hutch and pro neck bars were made by the same guy so that would be a good reason to use them on a hutch if you wanted to go something different. :coolsmiley:

Thanks for doing that Glynn , I guess that confirms it 100%  :daumenhoch:  I suppose it's not the result i ideally wanted but in terms of rarerity and obviously value it's a top result  :) 

The two bars do look very similar , so the same guy making them would not surprise me .  Im sure i have read somewhere that Robinson made the early Hutch bars ...... i might be completely off the mark but there early pro bars used a very narrow crossbar aswell  :-\

I'll get them off to the chromers and they can go on one of my Hutch's ........ unless a Natty Pro comes along  :D

Cheers for confirming Glynn  :daumenhoch:
